Process Insights Hub

Driving business outcome

The economic environment is changing rapidly. Organisations today adopt a process driven approach to ensure that they are achieving their business goals. Companies rely on business process modelling and business process management tools to solve process integration challenges, but they inevitably fail to deliver business process optimisation due to lack of operational excellence. Process Insights Hub can help modern businesses manage socio-cultural challenges ignored by business process management.

Modules

Procurement

The procure-to-pay process is also known as P2P, purchase-to-pay, or request-to-check. It refers to business processes that cover requisitioning, purchasing, confirming, receiving, paying for, and accounting for goods and services. Process Insights Hub brings visibility to the entire end-to-end P2P process and identifies root causes for problems.

Identify any rework that occurs during the purchasing process which leads to delays
Find automation rates of process activities and how can they be improved
Identify accounts payable without the involvement of the purchasing department
How many orders with the same vendor are processed within one week? Is there any potential to reduce costs by order bundling?
Find business segments with the biggest improvement potential by analysing across various dimensions, such as vendor, purchasing organisation, currency or PO etc.

Manufacturing

Application of Process Insights Hub to manufacturing business is to cover as much end-to-end process as possible, with as much detail as possible. Advanced analysis and filtering functionality allows the human analyst to hide distracting details in order to "see the forest for the trees" and use all the details effectively to find root causes for identified problems.

Increase performance by measuring key performance indicators from the entry of the production order all the way through the quality inspection, warehousing and delivery and maximise value creation.
Identify and eliminate waste by targeting issues like bottlenecks and poor production planning. Also identify causes such as downtime, changeovers or employee scheduling, etc.
Speed up operations by eliminating cross-departmental inefficiencies that harm manufacturing operations by slowing organisational throughput, extending customer response time and creating bottlenecks.
Reduce costs by finding redundancies and unnecessary tasks that wind up increasing overhead costs
Restructure processes to better allocate resources, so you spend less, while the process flows better

Sales

The Order-to-Cash (OTC) process covers the whole process cycle from handling customer orders to the point where the organisation receives payment from customers

Provide visibility across the OTC process such as warehousing, delivery, invoicing, and account management for different business units
Explore how often and why are orders rejected within the process
How fast are invoices processed after delivery?
Finding improvement points that are critical for process optimisation
Increase on-time delivery, locate key regions where payment is on time and monitor the amount of returned goods
Identify root causes for order changes and check lead-time between process steps

Marketing

Bottleneck identification in major process flows and impact analysis on SLA (Service Level Agreement)
Resource and team utilisation and opportunities to combine teams
Identifying automation candidates and figuring out opportunities for self-service/ self-healing solutions to reduce service desk effort
Performing root cause analysis for frequently re-opened tickets per category, which can help in preventing rework for service desk and improve effectiveness
Shortening the re-assignment count (e.g. by automatic tagging, improved process) to further reduce the service desk effort and improve SLA adherence.
Identifying the potential to optimise MTTR (Mean Time To Resolution) and FCR (First Call Resolution)
